Had a great weekend. No one was hurt and no damage to any rigs. It was a little cold at the lake and rained most of the night but had a blast. Hit rain right after jaws two but thank god we made it threw there before the rain hit. Almost flopped it coming down from the second lake because of the rain but saved it. All in all a blast and prob my most fav trail ever. Here the videos I put together. Hope you guys enjoy.

cool vids, cool tunes. Blanca has been on my todo list for over 5 years now... just haven't managed to get er done. Did you guys camp at Como, or was it a day trip?
 
What's the minimum rig these days? This has also been on my todo list. Way back in the XJ list days they dragged an XJ on 31's open with 3 inches to the top. Looking at the video, I can't quite see that. :) Unless I snag a job in the near future, I'll have to stay at 33", 4.5", 4 to 1, and a rear locker.
 
Had a great time on this trail, it was well worth the 4 hour drive from my house.

Fred, you would do just fine with your set-up. I'm on 33s front and rear lockers, I only touched the belly skid enough to leave a mark a couple times coming down the obstacles. I would say 33s would be the minium tire size. Only time someone took a strap was when they decided to go way high side on a boulder while it was raining, going down hill :D
